Keep your hands comfortable.

If you're looking for an affordable glove that's actually up to the task, the Louis Garneau 1 Calory Gloves fit the bill. They have everything that you need to keep your hands comfortable over rough roads and during long days in the saddle.

The top side of the hand is covered in spandex, which breathes well, conforms to the hand's shape, and wicks away moisture. Underneath, a comfortable and durable Amara palm provides grip. Since hot, clammy hands can lead to blisters and general discomfort, the palm is perforated to promote a positive airflow. The ventilation is most prominent in the recess of the palm — this is Garneau's patented Ergo Air concept, which helps to evacuate moisture. Additionally, 10mm foam inserts reduce hand fatigue from road vibrations, and a soft microfiber thumb acts as a forgiving nose-wiper.

As a nice final touch, the Garneau 1 Calory Gloves have a refinement that we wish came on all half-finger gloves — a puller tab that eases entry and exit.

The Louis Garneau 1 Calory Gloves are available in sizes X-Small to XX-Large and in the colors Black, Charcoal, and Ginger.

Disappointed

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

I bought these gloves as a replacement for the LG Zero Calory gloves that I had been using. Unfortunately, although the Zero's had been great glove for use in hot weather, the 1 Calory was a disappointment. The material for the back of the love was changed to some kind of polyester than "pilled" horribly so the whole backside of the gloves are now fuzzy like a wornout teddy bear. The very convenient slip-on design was replaced with Velcro tabs which I hate and find completely unnecessary with modern glove materials. Don't know why LG stopped making the 0 Calory. It was a great glove. Wish I had bought a dozen of them when I had the chance.
